- Extremes in temperature and water supply are the most common causes of this type of disease. Other causes are chemical substances in the soil, water, and air; transplant shock; and mechanical injuries. These nonliving disease agents are a major cause of loss in forest and landscape trees.f no signs of these organisms are present, the tree may have been affected by one of the agents described here. Even if signs of fungi or insects are present, a nonliving agent may be the underlying cause of your tree's problems. In most cases, prevention is the key to minimizing injury.

Pine Tree Dying Inside Out: Needles Browning In Center Of Pine Trees Environmental Causes of Pine Tree Browning. In years of heavy rain or extreme drought, pine trees may brown in response.

Signs & Symptoms of Evergreen Diseases Evergreens can develop armillaria root rot, also known as oak root fungus and shoestring disease. It kills the trunk at the base of the evergreen and the major roots. Symptoms of armillaria root rot are small, discolored needles or leaves that drop off. There may also be mushrooms growing on the trunk. Root-type growths that are reddish-brown or black may be found on the root surface or root crown. Entire branches die, commonly at the top of the evergreen first.

Browning of Evergreens 1 Water evergreens in the fall, after deciduous trees have lost their leaves, to ensure that the plants have sufficient moisture in the root zone to prevent freeze drying. 2  Let a small stream of water flow under the drip line for several hours.og urine will turn the foliage of lower branches yellow, then dark brown or black. Juniper and cedars are especially susceptible to this type of damage. Rabbits, mice, deer and porcupines will debark trees and branches. Deer also eat the foliage of coniferous trees, especially cedars, and disfigure them.
